Description: Despite dominating athletics for generations, the USA hasn’t taken track and field to its heart. So can this week’s world championships on home soil drive a surge in interest ahead of the LA 2028 Olympics or will they struggle to make waves beyond the traditional stronghold in Oregon? We hear from world athletics chief Seb Coe, track superstar Michael Johnson, three athletes who came through the US college system and the man in charge of Oregon 2022. Panel: Sarah Mulkerrins, Nesta McGregor, Ed Harry, Rachel Bachman Producer: Sam Sheringham
